The glass curtain wall transformed into a cool large screen? This is reliable!

You may have seen many glass exterior walls of tall buildings, which look bright and stylish during the day, but have you ever thought that these seemingly ordinary glass can also be transformed into eye-catching LED displays, playing various cool pictures and information?

The answer is yes! Glass curtain walls can be made into LED displays, and this is no longer a new thing in the industry. However, this involves some techniques and methods to make the display effect better.

Why can glass curtain walls "display"? The secret weapon is "transparent"!

Traditional LED displays are like airtight "bricks". Installed on the glass curtain wall, they will definitely block the light and affect the lighting and sight in the room, which is definitely not possible. How much does an indoor LED display cost this year?

Therefore, the key to making glass curtain walls an LED display is the word "transparent". There are currently several transparent LED display technologies on the market, which are like putting on LEDs with a layer of "invisible clothing", allowing light to penetrate the screen while displaying images and videos.

Common "secret weapons" are:

LED transparent screen (also known as grille screen and hollow screen): This kind of screen forms a dot matrix display effect by fixing LED lamp beads on a transparent frame or PCB board. Its characteristics are high permeability, light weight, and relatively flexible installation. You can imagine it as if a transparent grid is covered with small lamp beads. Here is the price of LED transparent screen.

LED light strip screen (also known as ice strip screen): This kind of screen encapsulates LED light beads into long strips, and then through clever design, the gap between the light strips is large enough to achieve a certain degree of transparency. The structure of this screen is simpler and more convenient to maintain. You can imagine it like a screen composed of rows of slender light tubes. We will introduce you to 3 LED light bead specifications.

Film LED transparent screen: This is a more advanced technology that directly encapsulates tiny LED grains on transparent films and can be attached to the glass surface like a film. Its characteristics are very thin and invisible, with extremely high transmittance, but relatively higher cost.

Want to make the glass curtain wall "bright" more exciting? Remember these tricks!

Light energy display is not enough. If you want to present a clear and attractive picture on the glass curtain wall and achieve a better display effect, you need to pay attention to the following aspects:

Choose the right transparency: Transparency is the core indicator of glass curtain wall LED displays. Choose the right transparency based on the lighting needs of the glass curtain wall, the viewing distance and the visual effects you want to create. Generally speaking, the further the viewing distance, the appropriate reduction requirements can be reduced.

Consider pixel spacing (point spacing): pixel spacing determines the delicateness of the picture. The smaller the pixel spacing, the more LED light beads per unit area, the clearer and more delicate the picture will be, but the cost will also increase accordingly. Select the appropriate pixel spacing based on viewing distance and the fineness of content you want to display. For example, for large advertising screens that are viewed from a distance, the pixel spacing can be appropriately larger. What is a fine pitch LED display?

The brightness should be "powerful" enough: glass curtain walls are usually in outdoor environments and are easily affected by natural light such as sunlight. Therefore, the brightness of the LED display must be high enough to be clearly visible during the day. Of course, you should also pay attention to intelligently adjusting the brightness of the surrounding environment to avoid being too dazzling at night. Here is a knowledge about nit brightness.

The "wisdom" of the control system: A good control system is the key to ensuring the display effect. It needs to be able to transmit and process video signals stably, support multiple playback formats, and preferably have remote control and monitoring functions for easy management and maintenance.

Content production needs to be "taste-friendly": no matter how good the hardware is, it needs high-quality content to present. In view of the characteristics of the glass curtain wall LED display screen, when creating display content, you can consider the transparency and creativity of the picture more, and use a transparent background to create a unique visual effect.

"Professionality" of installation and maintenance: The installation of glass curtain walls involves issues such as building structure safety, and must be constructed by a professional team. At the same time, considering the complexity of the outdoor environment, later maintenance is also very important, and products and solutions that are easy to maintain should be selected. Let me introduce you to the 7 differences between indoor LED displays and outdoor LED displays.

What are the advantages of glass curtain wall LED screens? It's not just "showing off"!

Glass curtain wall LED displays are becoming more and more popular not only because they look cool, but also because they have many tangible advantages:

No damage to the beauty of the building: High transparency design, when the content is not displayed, almost does not affect the original appearance and lighting of the building.

New carrier of advertising communication: The huge glass curtain wall itself is an excellent advertising space, and the LED display can make the advertising content more vivid and interesting and attract attention.

Convenience of information release: Various information can be released in real time, such as weather forecasts, traffic conditions, activity notifications, etc., to improve the efficiency of urban information dissemination.

Energy-saving and environmentally friendly: Compared with traditional outdoor billboards, LED displays are more energy-saving and environmentally friendly, and content can be flexibly replaced to reduce resource waste.

Enhance commercial value: Unique visual effects and information dissemination capabilities can enhance the image and value of commercial buildings. Here are commercial LED screen technology, advantages and selection guides.

To summarize:

The glass curtain wall can be made into an LED display screen, and by selecting appropriate transparent LED technology, optimizing display parameters, cooperating with high-quality content and professional installation and maintenance, it can achieve very good display results. It not only adds a beautiful landscape to the city, but also provides new possibilities for advertising dissemination and information release.
